Correction Lyrics Lightning Bird, Wind, River Man by Christy Moore

Back

Lyrics

If I was a bolt of lightning I'd shoot right down and split the sky
My energy would burn so bright t'would illuminate the darkest night
Maybe I'll come back as one, half a second I'll be gone
I'll zap the earth, light up the sea with a bolt of electricity

If I was a bird upon the wing the sweetest songs you'd hear me sing
I'd fill the air with secret words in a language no one's ever heard
Round and round the tune would ring, the melody reverberating
Mesmerising and absurd, more like and angеl than a bird

But today I don't want to be anything else but mysеlf
Today I'm a little bit of all these things
There's a little bit of all these things in me
I've got them all in my hand
I'm a lightning, bird, wind, river man

If I was a gust of wind I'd blow around the world three times or so
I'd gather up a million leaves and make a sculpture on the breeze
So beautiful that god would want to know how it was made
Would offer me a handsome price to be the wind in paradise

If I was a river I would be a raging river wild and free
Across the waterfalls I'd flow and rush the rapids down below
So treacherous would be my wrath you would not want to cross my path
I'd run so fast into the sea the waves would be seen on Mercury
